Anne Marit Godal (born 20 November 1972) is a Norwegian encyclopedist.[1]
Godal studied political science at the University of Oslo. [citation needed]
Godal has held positions in the Norwegian Labour Party and No to the EU.[2][3]
From 2011 to 2016, she was editor-in-chief of Store norske leksikon [the Great Norwegian encyclopedia], Store medisinske leksikon (an associated medical encyclopedia), and Norsk biografisk leksikon (a biographical encyclopedia).[2]
When she took over the editorship, these works were in danger of running out of funding. Godal secured university funding for their long-term survival.[4]
From 2017 to 2021, she developed the activities of Inspiria Science Center. [5] In 2018, she published an anthology of poems: Things have to change, soon, it´s coming - 100 Norwegian poems of community and fight (Alt skal bli forandra snart. 100 norske dikt om fellesskap og kamp), together with co editor Leif Høghaug.[6]
